Have you ever dropped the ball for someone you love—not because you didn't care but because your brain just didn't get the memo that you were needed? That's what it feels like to live in a spaghetti brain. And if nobody has ever explained that to you—consider this a decoder ring. From us to you. With love...
It took many years of struggling with my strong-willed nature before I truly surrendered my sass to God, but once I did, God didn’t remove it, He just redirected it. Now I like to think I have a superpower called Spiritual Sass...
Two years ago, my husband and I moved to the coast, and I committed to authoring a book for the Lord. At that time, I had no plans of writing children's books. Now, I’m writing two separate series for different age groups...

Right there in the parking lot, with hot tears streaming down my face, I prayed, “Lord, somehow, some way… let me be the one to help women in situations like mine.” At the time, I had no idea that one small “yes” would eventually grow into a community outreach that now helps meet over 40,000 food, clothing, and infant needs each year...
